This might be off topic, but I figured this was a good place. For all of you on rootzwiki, you've probably already read this. Cyanogen did an interview with them in CES. I'm not going to link it, just taking out a small part:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

We've been seeing some alpha builds of CM9 for a few devices. Where are things at right now?

We’re working on adding a lot of new features ... the theme engine needs to be totally rebuilt. Overall things are going to be a lot cleaner. The CM settings will all be integrated into the stock control panel. Everything in it's place, where it should be. The hardeset thing about CM9 is that Google has changed so much internally with ICS. Issues with graphics drivers are an issue. We can’t even write a transition layer to use. We’re just waiting on Google at this point. I’ve ported CM9 to the galaxy tab 10.1, but with no hardware acceleration... well, it just sucks. A lot of things don't work. We're not going to release something at this stage of development.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

So for all you wondering what happened, why no development, there is plenty going on.

All in all it's a good read, if you guys want, go check it out. (Again, not going to link it, not sure if XDA would appreciate that. :))

And sorry for the hijack.

I really like ICS, i have been using it on my Vibrant. I really cant wait to get it on our SGS 2 i love the animations. Its going to be a really nice platform when its ready. Cant wait to see what you come up with Royal. I hope all the lack of development from you and the usual major players are all waiting for CM9 to start cooking.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Devilman539:
As it stands cm is dead in the water. We'll get ics down the line but probably not for a few months and we won't see custom ROMs until after that. Just pick a ROM and be patient.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xspeed9190:
The only positive thing out of Galaxy Nexus getting the love first is... hopefully by the time there is support for SGS2 the devs will already know ICS really well and be well versed in optimization/customization techniques.

I've been using CM7 on my GS2 for well over a month now and I love it. The only issue I've come across is that I no longer get vibration notification for anything. The haptic still works but incoming calls and messages don't vibrate regardless what settings I use.

using this rom report

i didnt mean to offend anyone, i was just a little impatient. i finally decided to dump juggernaut and try this out and so far its been 10/10 functionality. i havent had any problem with audio, camera switching or haptic feedbacks. i mean absolutely no problems yet.and as great as juggernaut is, this rom stills blows it out of water (no offense, just a personal opinion) ill keep updated but this is for any one who wants to give this a try. p.s. which kernel will work for this rom so i can get that BLN app?

maybe someone can help me please.

been trying to install custom kernels onto cm7.2kang version and i get boot loops all day. every kernal ive tried (bullet, faux, synergy) produces the same result. maybe im missing something, but im installing it the same as the instructions say to no avail. any ideas?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] pyraxiate:
You can only use a cm7 kernel with cm7 roms. The only other one is the skyrocket cm7 kernel at the moment. Everything works except the auto rotation if you decide to try it.

Hey Hey let's calm down. :D

Regardless if it is possible or not, I doubt it will ever happen for rom seeing as how it has not been touched in a very long time. (Probably because they just figured to put more effort into the CM9 rom for the SGH-989)

I know this ROM probably won't get any updates. However, I'm wondering if others are having the same problem I am.

My data connection goes away, and really doesn't want to come back at all. If I reboot, it's back right away, but at some point it disappears and I have no data connection. Toggling airplane mode has no effect. No problems in the same area with my old MT4g, it's not a signal issue as I'm about 1000 yards from a tower and get full signal.

Sometimes, the cell signal disappears completely, but there's no "x" next to the signal meter. It's just that all of the bars are greyed out.

Any ideas for either fixing this, or another method to make it come back manually without having to completely reboot the phone? I'm hoping that this will be fixed in CM9, but I'd like to get things more stable with this ROM for the time being.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] xsteven77x:
Some people don't want every app being able to track there location, use the GPS whenever it wants, and in turn use that information for any number of things. Its a security risk waiting to happen and a show stopper bug if you ask me.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] mstrk242:
Not really. You don't have to keep gps on, I'm not sure why that has become the general impression. When the phone first starts up, and more specifically, when the ril-daemon starts up, the gps has to be active at that time. Basically, make sure before you shutdown or reboot your phone you put it back into this state: Data on, Wifi off, GPS on. After reboot, and making a call to make sure all is well, you can turn gps back off. Just make sure to remember to turn it back on again if you have to reboot/shutdown, and you'll be fine.

hahaha i feel your frusteration man. i too love cm7 roms more than any rom ever invented till date but here are the faults:

1) samsung made 3 different models of this phone and so not every dev is gonna buy all three and work on em.

2) the devs that are working on cm7 and cm9 probably have other services besides tmobile and are working on those roms.

3) the devs we have here trying to work on cm7 cant go further without getting what they require from team cyan ( source code or something like that)

my suggestion for you if you cant wait is to switch to sprint and buy their sgs2. or impatiently wait like the rest of us. trust me, its one of the hardest things ive had to wait on but put adw launcher ex on juggernaut rom and manage till then. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] zander21510:
If you want something that works better, try Cyanowiz for the I727 Skyrocket. Our phones are similar enough where you can load that rom, only problem is the rotation doesn't work. All you need to do is turn it off and bam it works beautifully and is a fully ICS themed CM7. It'll do till we get CM9.

Hey guys,

Long time Nexus one user, now s 2 user. Learning my way around these forums now. Took me a while to even realize that T-mobile had its own thread for the s2.

Anyway, I was using CM 7.2 on the nexus before I switched over and found this thread. From what I understand by browsing through the thread there are some issues with the sound and I will have to leave my GPS on to prevent a battery drain ( no problem, usually do anyway). Is there any other major problems I should know about?

How about any ICS cherry picks from Cyanogen? Like the ICS rotation or things of that nature?

The CM rom for the nexus was pretty stable so I just got kinda nervous when I read a few posts about problems on this build. Just making sure before I flash.

Thanks in advance for the help and look forward to helping out development and for this great phone!

this is what you need to flash. just follow the instructions EXACTLY (minus the AT&T APN settings). My phone automatically read the APN info off of my sim card; its available online somewhere if you need it.

The only thing wrong is a movement or wifi glitch here and there where you just have to reboot the phone; as well as the rotation being non-functional. You MUST turn off auto-rotation unless you want to forever look at your phone sideways. And it still auto-rotates in some programs, but this is the only major issue. I OC'd mine to 1.83ghz and its stable.

I didn't like the included ICS launcher, it was a bit buggy so I just downloaded and installed ADW. Everything else looks pretty nice and it tries real hard to be ICS lol. I love it, at least for now until CM9 alphas show up.
